Personal comments
Learning English was my reason to go to England as an erasmus. As I was in London, unfortunately for my command of English I could only interact with international students. So I learn many words and expressions (their level was usually very good), but always from foreign students. I could develop aurial and reading skills through attending lectures, listenning to the radio and reading books and newspapers (they're very cheap for members of the university), but I couldn´t really learn the language naturally from English students with a certain continuity as it was difficult to interact with them. London is a big town with many people with their own routine, so if you´re not working for a company or in high-school it´s very difficult to get to know locals well, which is want I intended. As a result, at the end of the year I'd learnt many things but not precisely what I'd planned.

It's London. You don't have time to go to one place over and over again. You have to experience it all.
